... and this bag was just - dancing - with me ...

A unique paper punch-work piece by Martin. Created from heavy-weight French hand-made paper, the artwork is intended to remain unframed and simply suspended as a pure white sheet. When placed in front of an opaque surface, the perforations reveal the shadowed colour of the wall behind, but ideally it should be spotlit or hung with a sunlit window behind (as shown) to bring the design to life and create a secondary, projected pattern upon the floor.

The piece is inspired by a transcendent scene from the feature film ‘American Beauty’, written by Alan Ball.

cancer (constellation)

A unique ‘punch-work’ piece by Martin, depicting the primary stars within the constellation of Cancer, which in earlier times (and for the obvious reason) was frequently represented by a depiction of a lobster or crayfish, rather than the more modern crab.

in the mood

A unique commissioned artwork by Martin for a private collection. Multi-layered paper and card construction on timber stretcher.
